The emblem is located in the center of the white band. The red band of the flag represents patriotism, courage, equality, and justice. The white band represents stead fastness, unity of the country, peace, and purity of ideas. The blue band represents kindliness, love, sharpness, and the sense of reality and liberty (country reports). On the left side of the flag, it bears the national coat of arms, which is a yellow five-pointed star within a green wreath. The green wreath is capped by the words Republica Del Paraguay. The star in the middle represents the date of Independence, May 14, 1811. On the reverse side of the flag, bears the seal of the treasury, which is yellow lion below a red Cap of Liberty and the words “Paz y Justicia” which is then capped with the words Republica Del Paraguay. The lion on this side of the flag symbolizes the defense of the nation, and liberty.
